Beast taming, starting from zero point

Chapter 82: Chapter 78 Filming

7:45 PM.

Qiao Sang sat at her desk, planning for the upcoming part of summer vacation.

It was only July 6th now, and school traditionally started in early September.

There were still more than a month and a half.

The Fire-Toothed Dog’s points had reached 456. If they were all added to its level, with a normal increase of 2 points per day, it would only need 176 days to evolve.

She could have the Fire-Toothed Dog gain points through battles and complete an evolution during the summer break.

...

As for its Blaze trait, she had made the Fire-Toothed Dog try activating it that morning, but it couldn’t be used with 100% certainty like a skill.

She had also done some research on traits.

The Alliance graded traits starting from E to S, comprising six levels in total.

The judgment wasn’t based on utility but on whether mastery of that trait had been reached.

It was somewhat similar to evaluating skill proficiency.

If it was a mandatory trait,

like the Moon Rush Grass sleeping in the rain, that was a natural E-level trait that couldn’t be changed.

Because it couldn’t be controlled voluntarily.

Many experienced Beast Tamers would consider the traits of the Pet Beasts they contracted with.

Qiao Sang thought that the Beast Taming Codex’s evaluation of trait levels was probably based on the Alliance’s standards.

If the Fire-Toothed Dog’s Blaze trait needed points or an unfavorable state to activate, she felt it could be left for now and allowed to happen naturally.

After all, if she needed Blaze to turn defeat into victory in future battles, she couldn’t consider herself a qualified Beast Tamer.

About skills, she had experimented that morning.

Being in the residential area, the Fire-Toothed Dog could only use its Doppelganger to practice Flame Tooth.

If it used the Doppelganger to train other skills simultaneously, they would probably receive complaints from the residents resting below in the community.

Doppelgangers five times, releasing Flame Tooth a total of 40 times.

That was the current limit of the Fire-Toothed Dog’s internal energy.

It was so much better than the beginning when it could only release Flame Tooth about 20 times a day after replenishing its energy.

The Treasure-seeking Ghost was an accident.

According to her original plan, the second Pet Beast in her possession should still be an egg.

But for such unexpected things that went beyond her plan, she didn’t feel averse.

In fact, she thought it wouldn’t hurt to have more such surprises…

The Treasure-seeking Ghost was still a newborn.

Making it train right away was simply too inhumane.

It could enjoy its childhood a little more; training it after a month wouldn’t be too late…

The summer break still needed to focus on the Fire-Toothed Dog…

Under the light, the girl propped her chin with one hand and held a pen in the other, writing intermittently.

In the living room, the three Pet Beasts were playing hide and seek.

The Treasure-seeking Ghost floated openly above the TV set, camouflaging itself.

Watching the Fire-Toothed Dog and the chubby home pigeon searching aimlessly in the kitchen area, it clenched its short claws into fists near its mouth, feeling an inexplicable sense of excitement.

Another room was busy with a phone call.

“Hello, Sister-in-law? No, just calling for a chat. My Sang Sang…”

…

The next day.

Qiao Sang set off for the Golden Entertainment Building with the Treasure-seeking Ghost perched on her head and the Fire-Toothed Dog in her arms, as she had agreed with Song Yuan.

The Treasure-seeking Ghost was holding a milk bottle, drinking from it on Qiao Sang’s head, its eyes curiously observing the surroundings.

Passersby would deliberately avoid eye contact with it and look away first.

This made the ghost feel particularly amused, leading it to deliberately stare at people until they noticed.

In contrast, the Fire-Toothed Dog appeared more mature and composed than usual.

It knew today was an important day.

Its Beast Tamer had said,

As long as today’s photoshoot went well, it could drink milk to its heart’s content in the future! The milk powder money for the new little guy might also depend on today’s earnings!

On the 18th floor of Golden Entertainment Building.

“President Song, the person you scheduled an appointment with has arrived,” reported a young woman in professional attire as she knocked on the door.

“Let her in,” Song Yuan said, picking up the contract she had prepared.

The young woman did not leave, standing there hesitantly, as if she had something to say.

She recalled that the boss had scheduled a meeting with the first-placer of the Bai Xinsai.

Since the discussion of potential cooperation was approaching, Qiao Sang’s background had been thoroughly investigated.

A recent middle school graduate, she had been specially recruited by Shengshui Middle School and won the first place in the Bai Xinsai with her junior-level pet beast, the Fire-Toothed Dog.

But the dossier didn’t mention she owned a Treasure-seeking Ghost. Could it be a wild extraordinary creature?

Should this be reported to the boss…

Yet, there seemed to be no reaction from the security downstairs…

“Do you have anything else?” Song Yuan asked.

“No.” After some consideration, the young woman chose to trust the security.

30 seconds later.

Song Yuan stared at the approaching Qiao Sang for a long while, not immediately greeting her but rather picking up her phone to dial a number.

“Hello, is this the patrol department? I have encountered a wild Spectral-type pet beast here, a Treasure-seeking Ghost, at the address…

Qiao Sang: “…!”

Qiao Sang quickly interjected, “This is a pet beast that I recently contracted!”

Song Yuan: “!!!”

After a short but effective communication, Song Yuan finally hung up the phone.

“I recall you just graduated from middle school,” Song Yuan said with a complicated expression.

“Perhaps I’m somewhat of a prodigy,” Qiao Sang replied.

Song Yuan: “…”

Suddenly, she didn’t feel like talking anymore.

After a while, Song Yuan couldn’t help but ask, “Why did you choose a Spectral Series beast for your second contracted spirit? You could have contracted a more manageable pet beast first, and considered a Spectral-type after a few years when your strength had grown.”

Song Yuan was puzzled.

In truth, she wasn’t the type to meddle, and there were indeed highly talented children in her relatives’ families, but compared to the girl before her, they all seemed quite ordinary.

This compelled her to have an appreciation for talent.

Given the girl’s aptitude, she was fully capable of pursuing a career as a Professional Beast Tamer.

However, contracting a challenging pet beast too early could waste time cleaning up messes and engaging in battles of wits with the pet beast.

Not to mention guarding against some of the more radical pet beasts that might fight to the death to end the contract.

By no means did this seem like the right choice.

People say geniuses think differently from ordinary folks, but those relatives’ children of hers seemed perfectly normal.

Qiao Sang sighed, “Ah, I didn’t want to, but it’s a genius.”

Song Yuan: “…”

She really shouldn’t have spoken.

The endorsement and photoshoot went exceptionally smoothly.

The Fire-Toothed Dog only needed to shoot three new seasonal pairs of sunglasses, which didn’t take much time at all.

Xiao Xunbao, the little Treasure-seeking Ghost, curiously watched the whole process.

It floated leisurely before a pair of pink heart-shaped sunglasses that had just been taken off, clumsily removing the halo on its head to place the sunglasses inside.

Qiao Sang: “…”

She kept a close watch on Xiao Xunbao the entire time.

Knowing the habits of Treasure-seeking Ghosts, she couldn’t let it do as it pleased.

Each Treasure-seeking Ghost had its own preference, and she wanted to see what her own pet favored.

She hadn’t expected it to take a liking to the sunglasses. @@novelbin@@

Could it be that it had the same taste as the Fire-Toothed Dog?

Just as Qiao Sang was about to ask Xiao Xunbao to remove the sunglasses, before she even spoke, it took off the halo and volunteered to take them out on its own.

Qiao Sang was quite relieved.

She thought that Xiao Xunbao had sensed her inner thoughts.

But then it took the sunglasses and floated over to the Fire-Toothed Dog, which had just finished its photoshoot, and handed them over.

“Xun Xun~”

“Fang~”

The Fire-Toothed Dog uttered a bashful bark.

Qiao Sang: “…”

As the Beast Tamer of the two pet beasts before her, she certainly knew what they were saying.

Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao with a strange expression.

Was that compliment serious?

Why did she get the feeling that there was a touch of sophistication beyond its years in those words…
